Bouncing Ball animation


As a class we created a bouncing ball animation.

We did this by creating a single frame with a ball and a straight line. To make the ball bounce up and down we had to take each frame moving the ball down 5 - 15 times each time.
What made this easy was being able to use the same frames going back up. As sir described "the good thing about computers is that you can cheat!'
This animation is approximately one second long? But has 22 frames. The First few frames have a black background because the settings weren't set then but the next time we do an animation, I'm sure that would change :)
We made this animation by putting in the different frames in order onto Windows Live Movie Maker and adjusting the speeds so it would realistic in the way that it bounces.

It was the first animation I've ever made and I find it fun ^^
